TL;DR Summary

A New York appeals court has reinstated a gag order against former President Donald Trump and his attorneys in the ongoing $250 million civil fraud trial. The order prohibits them from making public statements about the courtroom staff after Trump made comments about a biased clerk. The decision comes after threats against the judge and clerk were made public. The trial, brought by the New York attorney general's office, alleges that Trump committed fraud by inflating assets on financial statements. The judge has already ruled Trump liable for fraud and is considering damages. Trump's attorney argued against the gag order, but it was reinstated. A decision in the trial is expected at the end of January.
